Abstract
Jane Austen, one of the most remarkable female writers in the world, wrote six novels in her whole life: Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion. Her novels mainly talked about trivial matters of love and marriage between ladies and gentlemen. From the view of female, Jane Austen created these novels with different female characters. This thesis focuses on the common features of Jane Austen’s novels, including two themes--love and marriage, the relationship between love and money in marriage, the Cinderella model and feminist consciousness. In addition, the thesis also pays attention to explore the reasons for the common features from the social background, female’s status at that time and Jane Austen’s unique life experience.
Key words: Jane Austen’s novels, common features, reasons
1. Introduction
Jane Austen (1775-1817) is regarded as one of the greatest and best loved novelists in English literature, and one of the most important Pioneers in the English realistic novel. She builds a bridge between the tradition of realistic novel of the eighteenth century and the climax of the social realistic novel of Victorian Age. In her novels, one can find the rationalism of neoclassicism, and the truthfully detailed descriptions of realism. She earns the high esteem by her six great completed works, Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and Persuasion.
Jane Austen’s works did not evoke a repercussion in literary field in her own time until her death. With the publication of her nephew James Edward Austen-Leigh's memoir of Jane Austen, the readers began to know Austen, and her novels attracted the attention of well- known critics and scholars at that time.
